im done with this thread. Looking for the day when automation takes over and there are no pilots to fly. Sooner than you think.
do you only trust uniformed cops or
No, they weren't trying to kill anybody; but that isn't the point either. Nor were they a criminal charged with any crime. The item was removed and the crew members continued on their way from what I saw. They were however bringing prohibited items onto the plane. Would the several instances of crew members acting out each year have been different if they'd have been armed?
